About Us

We’re a fast-growing premium D2C skincare brand building more than just products.

Our mission is to bring clinic-grade skincare into everyday homes — delivering professional-level results without the high cost, complexity, or intimidation of in-clinic treatments.

We combine advanced formulations with strong branding and performance-driven marketing. Creative is a core driver of growth.

Role Overview

We’re hiring a hybrid creative who can edit high-converting videos, design premium visuals, and generate hyper-realistic AI content.

  • Create scroll-stopping hooks and compelling storytelling
  • Repurpose content across multiple platforms
  • Rapidly iterate on winning creatives

  • Collaborate on creative strategy (not just execution)
  • Ensure high output and creative velocity across projects

What We’re Looking For

1. Experience

  • Minimum 3+ years of relevant experience in video editing/design
  • Proven exposure to D2C / performance marketing creatives

2. Performance + Psychology Understanding

  • Strong understanding of human psychology and buyer behavior
  • Ability to translate insights into high-converting creatives
  • Understands hooks, retention, and ad fatigue

3. Strong Editing + Design Skills

  • Video: Premiere Pro / CapCut / Final Cut
  • Design: Photoshop (or equivalent)
  • Ability to create clean, premium, brand-aligned visuals

4. Advanced AI Capability

  • Able to generate hyper-realistic AI videos and creatives
  • Experience with AI video, image generation, voiceovers, and scripting
  • Strong interest in AI and willingness to lead AI adoption within the creative function

5. Ownership, Speed & Execution

  • Highly productive with a strong bias toward getting things done
  • Self-motivated (“batteries included”)
  • Ensures high output — both personally and within the team
  • Able to take ownership and drive work independently

6. Growth Mindset

  • Open to learning new tools, skills, and responsibilities
  • Thrives in a fast-moving, agile environment
  • Actively keeps up with trends in creative and AI

Nice to Have

  • Experience with D2C / skincare / beauty brands
  • Understanding of direct response marketing
  • Experience working with creative strategists or media buyers

How to Apply

Please include:

  1. Portfolio (D2C ads + design + AI-generated work)
  2. 2–3 high-performing creatives you’ve worked on (with results if possible)
  3. A short Loom video covering:
    • Your introduction
    • Your editing & creative approach
    • Your AI workflow (especially hyper-realistic content)

At the heart of VirtuHire's mission is a passionate drive to bridge the gap between global businesses and the exceptional, yet often untapped, remote talent pool in South Africa. The company was born from a recognition of the significant challenges businesses face when trying to source skilled professionals remotely. Founders Nicholas and Brandon envisioned a streamlined, fully digital recruitment process designed to simplify hiring while delivering outstanding results. This vision is built on a foundation of core values: Integrity, Excellence, and Innovation. The team at VirtuHire upholds the highest standards of honesty and transparency in all their interactions, ensuring a trustworthy partnership with every client. They are relentlessly committed to delivering a superior service that consistently exceeds expectations, and they continuously seek out innovative solutions to enhance the hiring experience for both companies and candidates.

VirtuHire's culture is centered around making a tangible impact. They position themselves not just as a recruitment agency, but as a strategic partner in building and scaling world-class teams. Their process is meticulously designed to be both efficient and effective. It begins with a deep dive into a client's business needs and vision to ensure perfect alignment. From there, a targeted talent search is launched, sifting through thousands of candidates to present a curated shortlist of the top three within a week, complete with CVs and introductory videos. By handling the logistics of interview scheduling and offering seamless onboarding as an Employer of Record (EOR), VirtuHire manages payroll, compliance, and administrative tasks. This allows their clients to focus on their core growth activities, confident that the recruitment and management of their remote team are in expert hands. This holistic approach empowers businesses to build exceptional teams and transform their workforce with top-tier South African talent.
